What do you believe in? Or not. What are your views? And what are your arguments. I have always wanted to believe that Angels truly existed
But maybe not that way, you stereotypes have listed.
WARNING FOR THOSE WHO ARE SENSITIVE: THIS IS AN ANTI-CHRIST POEM, DON'T READ IF YOU DISAPPROVE, IT'S AS SIMPLE AS THAT. SO FUCK OFF FLAMERS.
Angels
Just a fragment of ones imagination
They are not supposed to be real
Something to think about
Over your next meal
--
As I look around this table
You all close your hands
Praying to something
That we all heard in a fable
--
"Daddy! Mommy!
I thought he was just a story!
Hush Child
He is everything you see in its glory"
--
Taking this in, I shake my head disbelieving
My father before me sees this and starts weeping
My mother stands and raises her hands
"You child, must know that hell is not grand"
--
'Yeah, my ass, Heaven does not exist
And hell seems to be even further in the mist
Admit it mother, The Bible is a fake
You think about every day, lying wide awake'
--
The chair screeched back, and I turn to the shadows
Seemingly at home within their past mellows
My heart inside me, cools and hardens
A heart of steel, a soul with no burdens
--
Disgruntled and annoyed I stomp to my room
To lie in my bed, blanketed by gloom
I close my eyes and listen to your prayers
Sneering quietly, thinking that no one would hear but the mayor
--
My faith fades and my anger grows
Was there any more crap that you could throw?
I felt like I was trapped, in electric barbed cages
I spend my time burning the 'Holy' Bible's pages
--
I was an angry child, I admit, back then
I was surrounded by more idiots than men
The woman worked, and the men slept
Blind to the havoc, their fucking hands wrecked
--
Through this time, my anger swelled
Dirty thoughts bubbled deep in this well
My fist's tighten, my jaws crunched
Some idiot near me was about to get punched
--
Yet before I could commit a 'terrible' crime
The pastor approached, aware of my time
He saw the fury, he saw the 'sins'
He ripped my shirt, and hurled it in the bins
--
Gripping my hair, he threw me into confession
I laughed and snarled, mocking his profession
The shadows around me lengthen and darken
The pastor in front of me kneels down to the floors to mark them
--
The markings were mere scratches, on clear marble floors
I snort cruelly at the man, heading for the doors
Yet the doors slam shut, by some unknown force
And exactly then, I knew something was about to get worse
--
I turn around slowly, bright light scorching my eyes
The draping robes around me flare up then die
Squinting against the harsh light, I focus and see
That a great white angel had appeared before me
--
I stutter and fall, hard and fast
Aware of my troubles, aware of my past
The angels burns brightly, scorching my skin
The air around me smoulders, declaring its win
--
The angel looms over, I cannot see its face
Whether it was a woman or a man, I felt like a disgrace
My deepest fantasies had come true, Angels really did exist
The bright glow surrounds me, and this time I didn't resist
--
I stare up at this angel, my eyes wide and meek
My body still strong, yet it is my will that was weak
I try and say something, anything to confirm
That maybe they were wrong, I had a right to belong
--
Yet all things good, must come to an end
As the Angel slowly shimmers out, now light and dark must blend
The horror within me rises, I choke on my fears
As the Pastor beside it, chuckles and leers
--
My rage returns, rekindled anew
This man before me was about to be ripped in two
I gathered my courage, I gathered my strength
Now see whose boss, as I destroy your men
--
I stand up tall, and plant my feet
I refuse to give way, I refuse to be weak!
I grab hold of the angel, desperate and yearning
Ignorant of its fire, of the pain of my flesh burning
--
Alas, the angel still shimmers, in and out of life
In the corner of my eyes, the Pastor reveals a knife
I look in his eyes, them flashing with darkness
This was not a Pastor, but the Devil who's heartless
--
Before the knife plunges, the Angel burns once more with fervour
I tighten my grip, for careful extra measure
Sadly it was not enough, as my dream bleeds and fades
Out into the darkness, no one coming to its aid
--
A cold hand touches my burning tan skin
I startle awake, jerking away from my Kin
My eyes see the Pastor, but my mind sees a gleam
I turn away and realise, it was nothing but a dream
--
All too familiar tears fall, forming a puddle in its wake
I guess I was right, that everything was a fake
Religion was dead to me, I could no longer dream
The lesson I had learnt here, that nothing was what it seems
--
I wanted to fly, I wanted to believe
I wanted to dream, I wanted to receive
That one gift I asked for, to rekindle my hope
To show me that Angels truly do exist…
And that not everything in this world was a joke.
This poem was almost unfinishable, but thankfully Tuesday and Shanna helped me though, and I was able the gather inspiration from the two of them to find an idea of how to finish them. Thank you guys =] I love you both.
Hope you like it, I guess for me I didn't really know what to do anymore.
